Zn-Sb nanowires are prepared by heat treatment of Zn-Sb nanoparticles at 640?àunder an Ar atmosphere. The precursor, Zn-Sb nanoparticles, was obtained by electrodeposition. The length of the nanowires is more than 30?孠and the typical diameter is about 90?nm (see figure). A spinodal decomposition liquid solid mechanism is proposed to explain the Zn-Sb nanowire growth.Zn-Sb nanowires are prepared by heat treatment of Zn-Sb nanoparticles at 640?àunder an Ar atmosphere.
